If your oral surgeon is a "participating member" with your dental ins. company, then it doesn't matter what his regular rates are, he'll get paid what the insurance co. pays him and that's it. You, of course, will have to meet your deductable but that's it.
I'd talk to him (or his billing clerk) about what insurance you have and what's covered. Also talk to your insurance co. to verify what the dr. told you.
